SUBSCRIBER3  the original PC Tools was a product of Central Point Software,

and was acquired by Symantec in 1994.

this PC Toolsis a windows-oriented company

PC Tools publishes software and provides technical resources for

securing, protecting and maintaining the Windows® operating system.

and appears to be completely unrelated to the original:

PC Tools was originally founded as part of the WinGuides Network in 1998,

before being rebranded as PC Tools in 2004.

http://www.pctools.com/company/

at the same time this PC Tools is clearly hoping to benefit

from the name and reputation of the original PC Tools.

a word to the wise should be sufficient.

SUBSCRIBER3  a recent article in Science News reads in part:

"The bottom line: Don’t store files on DVDs, I learned, unless you’re prepared to dump the disks every three months and create new ones from your original source files.

"CDs will store your digital pix longer — maybe a year.

"Your computer’s hard drive: That’s the safest place to store digital files that matter. There the bits and bytes that define a snapshot of Mt. Everest, your baby at 6 hours of age, or grandpa's prize-winning radish may survive unscathed for three years or more. I picked up these depressing tidbits from David C. Tarrant of the School of Electronics and Computer Science at the University of Southampton, England."

DP-G4-450GUY  What an idiotic article.

Hard to believe that tripe was published in what is purportedly a 'science' mag.

ROB.H  Maybe the article was published in April 1st? ;-)

Have to say, I've got data on CDs and DVDs that I burned several years ago and it's still fine.
